Jose Mourinho was in good spirits ahead of the Leicester game. When he saw Kolo Toure, Brendan Rodgers' assistant, he joked about his belly: "You've got a bit fat..." he said while laughing.

Tottenham beat Leicester on matchday 37 of the Premier League season, but Jose Mourinho was also in the headlines. 

The Spurs coach waited patiently for his opponents so he could say hello to them one by one. Kolo Toure, member of the Leicester coaching staff, came onto the pitch. 

Mourinho said hello to him and then made a surprising comment about his weight. While laughing, he said: "You've got a bit fat."

Kolo Toure could not believe that he had said that out loud. Toure's face was full of surprise. To make things worse, he told Brendan Rodgers about Toure's belly just seconds later. 

Cesc Fabregas on social media could not stop laughing at what he had just witnessed. "Jose telling Kolo Toure he's got a bit fat. Amazing!," he wrote on Twitter.
